ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Members of the support staff in the Department of Agricultural Economics are acknowledged for
their contributions in assembling this report, particularly Cody Ott, Helen Maynor, and Lisa
Brown.
Special recognition goes to Nancy Grantham at the State Board of Equalization for providing
copies of the ad valorem levy (millage) reports. Finally, thanks to the county treasurers, clerks,
and assessors who provided levy sheets and clarifying information.
SOURCE OF INFORMATION
By county: Fiscal Year 2010-2011 Certified Ad Valorem Tax Levies report submitted to the State
Auditor and Inspector. Some county clerks and assessors provided additional detail upon request.
OBJECTIVE OF THE REPORT
This is the fifteenth time an ad valorem mill levies report has been prepared. This edition lists the
fiscal year 2010-2011 ad valorem tax levies within every county in Oklahoma. Ad valorem taxes
provide revenues for funding public programs. Thus, this edition is primarily assembled to assist
local officials and others interested in the management of public revenues. It also provides useful
information for taxpayers and those studying public fiscal policy.
Some simple statistics were derived such as the mean levy for a county, the mean levy for the
State of Oklahoma, and the percent share of the levy to each taxing unit. These statistical
derivations are not intended to be used as representative statistics for deriving the tax burden of
the average taxpayer. Their primary purpose is to approximate the distribution of ad valorem tax
among the various taxing entities.
DESCRIPTION OF THE REPORT
Organization of Tables by School District
This report provides a table of ad valorem tax levies for each county. Within a table, the rows are
arranged by school district, and the columns are by tax unit. For example, the county general
fund is a tax unit. Each row is summed to give the total ad valorem tax millage that is levied on
the taxable property within the school district. The column headings are explained on pages 10
and 11.
A unique combination of codes is used to define a school district. A code is included to denote
